Return to the quaint, timeless, mysterious Vadimville in this second collection of 20 stories. Some beloved characters return in even funnier situations, or in navigating new twists and turns of an alternate reality: old folks confronting tech developments, the classic dumb lucky detective, the spouses switching lives due to some trick of physics, the teen lovers who share a tragic history and a hopeful future. New inhabitants include a kind professional developing a country practice treating a very unusual population, a sanctuary where gray boys meet blue during the War Between the States, and shrewd women, imaginative children, insouciant men and of course, cool cars.
